Fall is my favorite time of year, an inspirational time for me. I wrote a quick poem of the seasons here and challenge you all to write one too.

Jack


Seasons

Behold the beauty of the spring
New leaves come forth and robins sing
The sun begins to warm the earth
Seems all of nature’s giving birth

In summers heat the world’s aglow
It is the gardens time to grow
To eat tomatoes from the vine
This is a favorite time of mine

Then after summer comes the fall
This is my favorite time of all
Multicolored leaves fall down
To form a carpet on the ground

Then as the snows of winter blow
I’ll watch and smile because I know
That soon again the birds will sing
To welcome in another spring

Jack, it's been a while, but I'm glad to be reading you again! Your poem touches all four seasons with grace.
I've written a few lately about the seasons..but I'll give this some consideration and see what falls from my feeble little mind. I'm still working on Sherry's challenge..lol..because of the multitude of words with hers though, I've decided on a short story for it.
My wheels are turning here...

Great to see ya Jack!

Hi Jack,
I liked the way you integrated all 4 seasons into a single poem. You have provided a pleasant read. Like you, I too enjoy the less complicated, pleasing style of writing.

Regarding your challenge.... I wrote and posted one recently called Seasons, another called Prelude to Winter, and a last one called The Trail.. Do they count or do I have to start over.. <LOL>

Regards,
Wayne

Hi Jack..I already wrote a fall poem called "Awe of Autumn" I will try to write another one that touches on all the seasons. This poem is awesome, by the way. I always love your poems and, of course, I love it when they rhyme.
Take care,
Sherry

Hey Dude!

I, like you, love the change of seasons!!! I am glad I live in a part of our planet where I get to experience all 4! I believe they each touch a part of our innner spirit, and we respond according to our inner heartbeat and circumstance. We are elemental......and part of this earth...you know, like in the Lion King....lol.....the circle of life. LOL......(You can tell I spend alot of time with little kids lol) Roarrrrrrrrr

Your poem.............
You've painted an accurate and gentle word picture with your poetry my friend. With your pleasing, down to earth style. I envisioned the ripening tomatoes in a back yard garden, fenced........to keep Bambi, and Thumper out! With robins chirping.....and everyone twitterpated......(remember what that one means) LOL......I've enjoyed this Woodpecker..........as always you are a delight!!!

And as for your challenge.......I wrote one recently and posted it......about the seasons.......
called.........SEASONS BEST.......(can we count that one??)

Adios muchacho!

A lol

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
